How to make a Keypad link blink when garage door is open

Does anyone know how to make my garage door keypad link button blink when the garage door is open?

I have the garage door programmed on button H of the keypad link and it's setup to toggle on/off for open and close.

It works great but want to add the feature to make it stand out a bit more when the door is left open it would blink the H button light.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

See ISY Garage Door Layout attached file if need be.

There is no Insteon function that will blink the KeypadLinc button LED. The button could be assigned as a Responder to a Scene, with a Program turning the Scene On and Off at 1 or 2 second intervals but I STRONGLY recommend against this approach. This would generate too much sustained powerline traffic that will interfere with other powerline activity.

 

You could turn On an ApplianceLinc that has some sort of beeper device plugged into it so that an audible beep is heard if the door is open for an extended period of time. If skilled in creating low voltage digital circuits an I/O Linc Relay could turn On a digital circuit that beeped at interval or flashed an LED.
